Context

Deploying the latest (DELL-ECSCE-3.6.2.0-OVA.ova) OVA using All-in-One Single-Node Deployments procedure Logued as root (not mentionned if needed to run the install steps as admin or root user) Changed nodes IP in install_node and storage_pools > members sections with the node IP Changed DNS and NTP to match environment Changed ecs_block_devices from /dev/vda to /dev/sdb No error after saving the yml file. Ran ova-step1, without error. According to the documentation, I should receive EMC ECS license agreement on the screen, but no such screen appeared, the step1 finished without error Ran ova-step2. The deployment fails here with the following output :

Exactly the same error, here. Used current OVA.

Any ideas ?

Same issue here. Doesn't look like ECS Community edition is alive :(

[nikhil-vr]

Normally this error happens when the storagepool initialize taking more time . could you please try accessing the ECS UI and create VDC/RG ..on UI ?

[MichelZ]

Thanks @nikhil-vr, I was able to resolve this. I've set static addresses on the nodes but didn't disable DHCP, so they got 2 addresses each and likely confused. I've also added the nodes to DNS.

This seems to have fixed my issue

@MichelZ I'm having exactly the same problem. I'm using static address, too. What do you mean with disabling DHCP (where?)?

Thanks!
